The Vinca Minor ‘Illumination’, produces near continuous foliage changes. Spring growth emerges chartreuse then brightens to golden yellow. Each yellow leaf is edged with a grass green margin. Later in the year plants turn to cream on attractive pink stems. Direct sun will prematurely bleach foliage. Blooms in late spring and continues sporadically through the summer. Flowers are Dutch blue, 1 inch wide for high contrast against foliage. Dramatic alone in hanging baskets for long golden tresses. Ideal foliage accent for color pots too. In the garden use as a spreading groundcover to brighten shade gardens. Beautiful cascading down slopes, banks, walls and curbs. Pest and disease free. Herbaceous perennial.

Weeds - Control without Poisons is a compendium of advice by Charles Walters, founder of Acres, USA, and author of An Acres USA Primer. According to Walters, “Weeds are an index of what is wrong - and sometimes what is right - with the soil, or at least with the fertility program.” Adding back the missing elements, like calcium, magnesium, potassium or others, will get rid of more weeds than using all the available herbicides on the market, and increase your crop yield. Weeds - Control without Poisons gives information on hundreds of weeds, including why they grow, what soil conditions help or stop them, and how to control them without poisoning your soil. Written in an anecdotal style, it will entertain as well as inform. Do you know where tumbleweed came from? For Charles Walters, it was his childhood introduction to this weed that sparked his interest in all weed pests. The book includes a cross-referenced common and scientific glossary of weeds and a pictorial glossary.Softcover,

The Common Chives, ‘Allium schoenoprasum’, has beautiful edible flowers and delicate onion flavored foliage. The Common Chives are at home anywhere. Not many plants do as many things as this plant does and are as easy to grow, maintain, and they come back every year. The Chives plant is 12 inches tall and has narrow, hollow leaves. They produce round pinkish-purple flowers in late spring and early summer. Cives are a type of onion grown for the foliage and not the bulb. The edible flowers make a tasty chive vinegar. Chives foliage is used as garnish to compliment onions, potatoes, aspargas, cauliflower, corn, tomatoes, peas, carrots, spinach, poultry, fish, shell fish, creamy sauces, cheese and eggs. It is very famous for use on baked potatoes with butter and sour cream and chopped chives on top. Plant in the early spring as soon as the soil can be worked or 2 months before first fall frost. Chives prefer rich, well drained soil.
